The Allan Miller House by John Van Bergen architect

John Van Bergen was an Oak Park native who worked as a draftsman in Frank Lloyd Wright's studio. When Van Bergen received his architect license he designed homes in the Prairie Style. His work is often thought to be that of Wright.

The Allen Miller House is located in Chicago's South Shore neighborhood and was built in 1915. It is the only surviving building in Chicago by Van Bergen.
